Meryl Streep is no stranger to the awards circuit, and now she's being counted among the country's most influential artists too. Streep, along with Neil Diamond, Barbara Cook, cellist Yo-Yo Ma, and saxophonist and composer Sonny Rollins, will receive Kennedy Center Honors awards in December. Mary Tyler Moore can also do some early celebrating. She is this year's recipient of the SAG Life Achievement Award.
